I can say I've fished from a boat, I've skied from a boat, I've tubed from a boat and now the big thing seems to be surfing from a boat and I can say I've done that! Boat, big wake, board no rope, actually easier than you might think!

Huntnsurf, doesn't have the same ring to it.

Other great ponderances to catch up, Mom had a Corvair, loved to drive it, news came out it was unsafe she claimed Dad was trying to kill her and made him sell it.

My first ride was a 56 Chevy Bellaire 2Door Post. I was so proud of that car...black and white! She was an automatic with a huge box air conditioner in the front floor board. If you turned on the compressor and not the fan it would build up ice on the coils and blow snow cone on you when you turned on the fan. My girlfriend had to straddle that monster so she could sit next to me and put her arm around me while we were driving . I guess back then that was the female way of staking her territory!

We cruised many a DQ's revving the engine so everybody could here my new duals with glass-packs. Those were the days!

It's mighty quiet here in the mutant neighborhood. We are prepping for a journey. No Jury Duty, so now are feeling free. Figure by the time I'm next able to view these ponderences there will be much catching up to do. Y'all stay safe till then.

When we got our South Dakota drivers licenses the clerk told us if we ever got a jury summons to just write "Full Time RV" on it and mail it back.

Hmm, my first car when I was 17 was my Dad's old '61 or 62 Desoto sedan with the giant fins on the back and a big old V8. It had a pushbutton transmission on which the buttons sometimes would stick, so I would have to get under the dash to fix them. Electric windows. Had to sit on a pillow to see over the steering wheel, but I felt cool. When I got my first job and bought a car it was a '66 Valiant with black bucket seats instead of a bench, lol. Gas was 30 cents a gallon .Funny, back then wheels meant freedom. When I had kids they were supremely uninterested in driving and did not get their licences 'till their late 20s.

Huntnski, if you truly want to see the end of the world drive Hwy 50 across Nevada from California to Ely, Nevada. Now there truly is the end of the world. About 350 miles of nothing except 2 small towns before you get to Ely. I think we saw 2 vehicles on that highway. It is aptly called the "Loneliest Road in America".

DW and I want to escape the hustle an bussel, but still be found! We're still hoping Ed McMan will bring us a check! Ely, Nevada, maybe another time.

Huntnski, we were on our home way from Alaska. Rather than drive down to Los Angeles to go across to Las Vegas we went across Northern California. That is how we found Hwy 50. I can now say without a doubt that on the whole trip, we were gone for 2 months, that, that was the longest and most boring day we had on the whole trip. And, that includes driving across Southern New Mexico on I-10 and I-20 to our home out here good ole Big Spring, TX.
